More and more states are being threatened with Carbon Capture Pipelines. Is yours one? If not, don't wait - don't allow it.
- Details
- By Press Release
A Pennsylvania reader contacted us; he had heard rumors about a carbon capture pipeline (CCS) project that was supposed to be coming to Pennsylvania, and he wanted to know where it would be. He had asked officials but was told that there aren’t any in the works right now. My digging came up with a report called “Potential Near-Term Candidate CCS Industrial Facilities in Pennsylvania” (with estimated capturable emissions & range of capture costs).
But that information I received was vague – there were companies asking for information but not stating any interest to move forward. The best one gets is the official lines:
“While there are no commercial CCS projects operating or under development in Pennsylvania, there are some laboratory and small pilot projects underway.”

Significant Facts, Myths, and Mistakes
The French pulled out of Indochina in 1954, shortly after the Battle of Dien Phu on May 7, 1954. However, losing 4,000 dead and missing, and the surrender of nearly 12,000 French Foreign Legion and French Union troops (including 6,600 wounded) at Dien Bien Phu was not the principal reason France gave up the colony it had governed since 1887. The French-Indochina War was a Two-Front War. The war was really lost on the home-front after 9 years of intensive Communist agitation and propaganda. The French Parliament, having only a small plurality of moderates and conservatives over socialist and leftist parties, finally caved.

Forgiveness From the Soul
Chapter 2-1
Debrala and Lee were startled when the video cube they were watching suddenly stopped. Bal had entered the room unnoticed, and was sitting beside a weeping Shana, doing his best to comfort her.
“It’s all right, Shanee, it’s all right,” assured her husband. “Let it out, love. Let it out,” he kept telling her, pulling her close to him. Leeamar, Shana’s grand daughter, was confused over her grandmother’s reaction to the video cube they were watching, and looked to her mother for an explanation. Tears were also falling down her mother’s cheeks, and Lee went to her.
“What is it, Mom? Why are you and Gramma crying? It was only a sad story. Wasn’t it?” asked the teen. Deb looked at Lee and took her hand.
PERKINS: Corporations’ Silence on Pride Speaks Volumes
- Details
- By Tony Perkins - The Washington Stand
After years of cultural dominance, what’s finally slowing the momentum of the Pride movement?
Recent reporting from outlets like The Wall Street Journal and The New York Times shows that major corporations are quietly backing away from the signature events of Pride Month. The movement once championed by boardrooms is now being met with increasing caution — even silence.
I’ve often questioned the wisdom of labeling a movement “Pride,” especially in light of the biblical warning: “Pride goes before destruction, and a haughty spirit before a fall” (Proverbs 16:18). And fall it has — not yet completely, but significantly. While the destruction of the movement may not be imminent, we are seeing encouraging signs that through continued prayer, education, and activism, we can bring about the collapse of an ideology that seeks to normalize the abnormal — and shame what is good, right, and true.
How Did SC Score On The Freedom Index In 2024
- Details
- By United Patriots Alliance and Evan Mulch
Some Think We Live In A Conservative State, Yet The Results Say Otherwise
Each year, The Freedom Index issues scores on key votes for Congress and all 50 state legislatures. South Carolina, supposedly a “red” state, continues to be hampered by Republicans that show very little fidelity to the U.S. Constitution and limited-government Americanist principles. Below, you will see a compilation of how all elected public servants in Congress and the South Carolina legislature performed in 2024.
Interestingly enough, the state representative that SC GOP Chairman Drew McKissick awarded with Legislator of the Year on May 3rd at the SC GOP Convention, Rep. Brandon Guffey, scored a failing 33% on his scorecard in 2024.

"Wait, now you want to start testing drugs *before* giving them to billions of people?"
By all means, let’s all collapse onto fainting couches and demand a Level 5 Outrage Alert over Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s latest unthinkable move: In a burst of insanity rivaled only by that time someone suggested strapping babies into car seats instead of letting them roll around in the backseat like bowling pins, our deranged HHS Secretary has actually declared that we should start testing vaccines. Thoroughly and properly. You know, against placebos, like saline or sugar water. Oh, and also these new options shouldn’t contain the sketchy mRNA technology that teaches our cells to build spike protein like it’s a Lego kit from hell.
What’s next? Suggesting we wash our hands after handling feces and cook chicken all the way through?
United States Army Cadet Command Prayer Commissioned as Fourth Official Institutional Military Prayer in US History
- Details
- By Don Biadog, Commander, CHC, USN (Ret.), Vice President, Military Bible Association
WASHINGTON — The United States Army Cadet Command Prayer was officially commissioned and recognized in 2006 by the United States Army Cadet Command as the fourth official institutional military prayer in U.S. history. It was originally written for the Leader’s Training Course (LTC)—now known as Cadet Summer Training (CST) at Fort Knox, Kentucky. As it approaches its 20th anniversary in 2026, the prayer remains a solemn reflection of the values and mission of the United States Army Cadet Command.
Adaptation Versus Universal Common Descent
- Details
- By Charles Creager, Jr.
Evolutionists will frequently use the word evolution or theory of evolution to refer to two completely different concepts. The first is the adaptation of a species to changes in its environment. This can result in observable changes and is likely responsible for much of the diversity that has developed since the Genesis Flood. The second is universal common descent, which is the totally atheistic idea that all life on earth has developed from a single common ancestor after poofing into existence by processes for which there is no real theory, but all indications is that it is statistically impossible.

‘It’s about time’: Education Department cuts $1 billion in ‘mental health’ grants used to advance DEI
- Details
- By United States Parents Involved in Education
Shaming kids who are white and telling kindergarten through third-grade children they may be a boy or a girl, and other forms of sexualization of young children, are likely at the root of the mental health issues children are facing.
The U.S. Department of Education under the Trump administration has cut $1 billion worth of “mental health” grants that were being used to advance diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) ideology instead of mental health.
Some of the grants that advanced “diversity goals” explicitly sought “non-white” counselors, according to The Federalist.
It’s about time they pulled the plug. It’s ironic that the federal government thinks it needs to provide a billion dollars for a ‘mental health crisis’ they’ve induced by force-feeding kids woke and Marxist propaganda.
Welcome to the Intifada, America

- By David Harsanyi
Now we know what "globalize the intifada" means.
After a pro-Palestinian Marxist was arrested after shooting and killing Yaron Lischinsky, a German-born evangelical Christian, and his American girlfriend, Sarah Milgrim, in front of the Capital Jewish Museum in Washington, D.C., he chanted, "Free, free Palestine."
The murderer, who reportedly traveled from Chicago to kill two innocent 20-something-year-olds, surely knew the embassy workers were Jewish. His justification, as far as we know, was a blood libel that is a millennium old. The slander has simply been repackaged for the modern audience.
Toma Lea’s Story: The Comfort of Sorrow

NOTE: This tale is an “amplification” of the two-part series: “The Parable of Konner Fuller”, excerpted from my unpublished book;, Shana of Mamooda, for the further clarification of events that happened (albeit fictitiously) in the life of Toma Jon Lea, Supreme Commander of the Armed Forces of The United Republics of the East, and later the President of that nation. Read Part 2 of that parable AFTER you’ve read this story.
CHAPTER 01
EXPLANATARY PROLOGUE-- A FLASHBACK IN TIME
In a far future year in the 28th century lived a man named Toma Jon Lea. At the time of this event he was the Supreme Commander of all of the armed forces of his nation, The United Republics of the East, or “Republica” as its citizens called it. By being thoroughly prepared for war with the deadly enemy of Republica, the Mamooden Protectorate, or “Mamooda” as everyone living on the Great Northern Continent called it, Supreme Commander Lea and his President had been able to keep the peace, but not without difficulty. The Triune God of eternity had even brought about what most people in Republica considered an answer to their long expressed prayers, for the once anti-Christian nation of Mamooda had been opened to God’s Word for the first time in hundreds of years, as Christian missionaries were slowly, and then increasingly welcomed into that nation.
Facts and Myths about the Vietnam War - Part 1

- By Mike Scruggs
April 30 Was the 50th Anniversary of the Fall of Saigon
Vietnam was part of French Indochina from 1887 until 1954. This included Vietnam, Laos and Cambodia. The area now called Vietnam consisted from north to south of Tonkin, Annam, and Cochinchina. Cochinchina was roughly equivalent to South Vietnam. The Japanese occupied Indochina during the World War II years of 1943-1945.
Following the Russian Revolution of 1917, and the victory of Bolshevik Communist “Red” forces under Lenin and Stalin over the White Army’s coalition of Tsarist loyalists, capitalists, and anti-Bolshevik moderates in 1923, the foreign policy of the Soviet Union (USSR) was driven by aggressive ideological Marxism. Communist doctrine was ruthless under Lenin and Stalin and called for an eventual global triumph Communism dominated by the USSR.

Why Do We Need a Creator in the Scientific Age?
- Details
- By Charles Creager, Jr.
One of the biggest claims that you hear today is that science has eliminated the need for God. This claim is based on the presupposition that science has done away with the need for a creator, or a need for God to explain any phenomenon that is observed. The problem is that with regard to the origin and history of the universe and Earth the presupposition that God was not involved is a critical part of the theoretical system being used. Consequently, the claim that science eliminates the need for God is based on inherently atheistic assumptions.
Eyes are Useless When the Mind is Blind
- Details
- By Nate Leupp - 4th District Republican Club
I recently came across a quote that struck a chord with me—especially as it relates to grassroots political involvement:
“Eyes are useless when the mind is blind.”
While this phrase can be applied to many aspects of life, its relevance to politics—particularly at the grassroots level—is profound.
A few weeks ago, the South Carolina Republican Party held its biennial convention in Columbia. Before the event began, I had a brief conversation with a first-time delegate who was eager but uncertain about what to expect. That interaction reminded me of my own early experiences attending county and state conventions. I remember how, as a newcomer, I was quickly embraced by some of the more radical voices in my local party. Their strong views and rhetoric shaped my early understanding of politics, party dynamics, and even political figures. At the time, I was little more than a warm body in a chair, attending conventions without fully understanding the rules or procedures. I parroted the anger and accusations of rule-breaking that I’d been told to expect—even though I had never read the party rules or heard of Robert’s Rules of Order.
Bringing Greenville County Into Compliance with State Law by Removing Illegal Prohibition Signs
- Details
- By Roy F. Harmon III - Board Member & General Counsel, South Carolina Carry, Inc.
At the April 15, 2025, Greenville County Council meeting, Councilman Benton Blount had a clear opportunity to demonstrate leadership, respect for constitutional rights, and fidelity to South Carolina law. So did Councilman Rick Bradley.
Instead, both joined with Democrats Ennis Fant and Alan Mitchell, along with progressive Councilwoman Liz Seman, to vote against an ordinance that would have brought Greenville County into compliance with state law by removing illegal prohibition signs.
The issue before Council was not complex: whether to comply with South Carolina Code § 23-31-235, which outlines specific legal requirements for firearms signage on public property—including size, wording, and placement. Councilman Steve Shaw introduced an ordinance that would have aligned the County’s practices with state law. The ordinance did not seek to expand where firearms could be carried, nor did it change who could carry. It simply aimed to correct signage that had been posted without legal authority and in violation of existing law.
GOP Can Cut Medicaid Costs without Reducing Services by Ending Democratic ‘Money-Laundering’: Experts
- Details
- By Ben Johnson - The Washington Stand
As talks over needed Medicaid reforms inside the Beltway stall, health care experts say Republicans can dramatically reduce Medicaid costs without affecting services by cracking down on a form of “money laundering” that enriches politicians in Democrat-controlled states at the cost of the truly needy.
Experts say Republicans should reform an accounting gimmick by reforming Medicaid reimbursements for intergovernmental transfers (IGT). In essence, a state temporarily borrows funds from a public emergency provider, such as an ambulance service, through a “provider tax.” But the state returns those funds to public providers — and counts this as a state Medicaid expense. The federal government then reimburses a share of this inflated cost, allowing politicians to pocket the padded costs.
God Has Detailed Plans

The Biblical Comfort of God’s Providence
Jeremiah 29:11. “For I know the plans I have for you,’ declares the Lord, ‘plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.”
The Christian doctrine of God’s Providence should be one of the most comforting to Christians. But what is Providence? First let us start with some defining quotes.
Among the briefest but clearest is this statement by Jerry Bridges (1929-2016):
“God’s providence is His constant care for and His absolute rule over all creation for His own glory and the good of His people.”
Chapter 5 of the Westminster Confession of Faith (England, 1647) deals specifically with God’s Providence. In seven paragraphs, covering little more than one page, it spells out the main points of the Reformed Doctrine of Providence. These are supported by more than 77 Scriptural passages, many containing several verses. The first paragraph gives a more nuanced definition of Providence.
Is A New Constitutional Convention A Good Idea Or A Dangerous Threat To Our Existing Freedoms?
- Details
- By W.H. Lamb
For almost the past twenty years, Americans have been listening to the calls FOR a new Article V Constitutional Convention (or CON CON), which if called into existence by the U.S. Congress would be the FIRST CON CON since the original one that was held in Philadelphia in the summer of 1787. I’ve visited the Pennsylvania State House (now called Independence Hall) in Philadelphia twice over the years, and I’ve been in the vary Assembly Chamber wherein our present venerable Constitution was argued over, codified, and adopted. Both times it was a humbling experience. To be in the same large chamber in which so many of our Patriot forebears labored during the beastly hot Philadelphia summer, and see the ACTUAL and ORIGINAL “Rising Sun Chair” (made by John Folwell in 1779) on which George Washington sat as President of the Convention was very special to my wife and me each time.
Greater Greenville Sanitation – A Fight for Local Control and Service Integrity
- Details
- By Benton Blount - Chairman of Greenville County Council
The events surrounding Greater Greenville Sanitation (GGS) over the past few weeks have revealed a frustrating—but all too common—truth about how politics sometimes operates: when a desired outcome can’t be achieved in court, some will try to achieve it through backdoor legislation instead.
Here are the facts:
First, a private national sanitation company filed a lawsuit in an attempt to block GGS from expanding services and building a transfer station. They lost. The court upheld GGS’s ability to continue serving the public and investing in infrastructure.
Using Education to Attack Farmlands?
- Details
- By Lynne M Taylor - American Policy Center
If you’ve heard of “STEM” (Science, Technology, Engineering and Math) or STEAM (the “A” stands for Arts) or even STREAM (the “R” stands for reading/writing); you may NOT know that there’s a new acronym around called “STEAMA”. Now, depending on where you live in the US (and this can be found repeated internationally), the “A” may stand for agriculture OR athletics. However, what STEAMA stands for, both agriculture and athletics?!
What does this mean? Is there a code to these acronyms? How does this connect to taking farmland away? All these questions, and others will be answered.

The 'N' in SNAP Means Nutrition

SNAP, or Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program, also known as food stamps, is one of the nation's largest welfare programs.
And, like all welfare programs, it is massive, it has grown prodigiously over the years and it is inefficient.
One glaring issue, which is gaining attention as a result of new Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr.'s Make America Healthy Again campaign, is the kinds of foods that recipients of SNAP funds can purchase.
